Did you complete the Fafsa for Penn?
 
Hello. I just received an interview invite from Penn, and I am extremely grateful. However, I am going to turn it down.
To those who turned down the interview invite, did you email the admissions office or call the number provided in the interview invite email?
May I ask what your stats are and whether your status changed on the Penn portal?

Of course, and my status did not change. It still says "None."

I interviewed 2/18 and haven't received any communication from the committee. Do you think I still have a chance at an acceptance?
 
Does anyone know if Penn sends out acceptances in batches or do they typically call only 1 or 2 applicants per day?
